The 2010 Halifax Walk for World Suicide Prevention Day will be taking place on Sunday, September 12th at 1:30 pm (sharp!). Suicide prevention is everybody's business, so please take a step toward addressing suicide in our communities in Nova Scotia!
The Walk will begin at 1:30 pm (sharp!) at Victoria Park, corner of South Park St. & Spring Garden Rd. (across from the Public Gardens) and will proceed down Spring Garden Rd., turn left onto Barrington St., ending at City Hall in Grand Parade, with info booths, refreshments and a guest speaker.
If you belong to a community group that is involved with mental health issues, suicide prevention or have had a booth at the Walk in previous years and wish to have a booth at the 2010 Walk, please email halifaxwalkwspd@yahoo.com with 'Walk Booth' in the subject line of the email and you will be contacted with further information. There is no cost involved in having a booth (although donations to the Halifax Walk are accepted) but there is limited space.
If you require further information, please contact Laurel Walker, Coordinator, Halifax Walk for WSPD at (902) 830-4986.
This is a rain or shine event and is family friendly!
